today "emerge -up --deep world" shows me possible upgrade for gcc (3.2.2=>3.2.3-r1) , glibc (2.3.1-r4=>2.3.2-r1) and some other pckg's ... so I done it.
After restarting system I recognized incoming mail problems. Simple check using "telnet localhost 25" showed the error:
421 unable to read controls (#4.3.0)
Note: It happens in case some file(s) in /var/qmail/controls/* is borked or whole directory is missing. Clear it's not my case, because all the directory was left untouched and it worked for me till upgrade.
"emerge -up --deep world" likes to downgrade: [ebuild UD ] glibc-2.3.1-r4 [2.3.2.-r1] although both ebuilds are marked stable (for x86).
So I downgraded glibc ... and qmail is running again, but
"emerge -up --deep world" likes to upgrade again: [ebuild U ] glibc-2.3.2.-r1 [2.3.1-r4]
(It 'll be probably never ending story :-) )
Has somebody else similar experience ?
